Josie Maran Argan Eye Love You Too Eyeshadow Palette~ Swatches

Eye Makeup by Josie at ShopStyle

When I was at my Sephora recently, I was able to swatch the new(ish) Josie Maran Argan Eye Love You Too eyeshadow palette, the second of her pressed eyeshadow palettes infused with argan oil to help the skin.
Very green themed!
Top Row, Left to Right. Yes the shade that looks green shows up brown. Weird.
I think the one shade is a duochrome but honestly I can't tell. It looks green in the pan but goes on brown- however it doesn't have a colour shift to it on the skin that I can tell. I just found the shadow strange.
Bottom row, Left to Right. 
I found these shades less pigmented than the previous palette though there are many more earth toned shades in this one. They also didn't leave that buttery, soft feeling on my skin afterwards that the previous palette did. Overall I was disappointed, many of the shades I found needed multiple swipes to show up and they had quite a bit of fallout too. 
Sorry the photos aren't brighter, but I just couldn't do any better inside the Sephora store- the SA were already looking at me strangely as it was!
All the shades together
Overall, wouldn't (and didn't) buy it though the colours are nice and neutral enough for everyday wear. If you do end up getting it you'll have to tell me your impressions of it, I'd love to see how they compare to my initial findings of the palette in store.
